Jeff Cline spoke about the content of books in the school system’s libraries during the public participation portion of the April 6, 2009 Mount Vernon City Schools, Ohio, Board of Education meeting.
During the meeting, the school board, in a four-to-one vote, approved Gary Chapman to replace Dr. Lynda Weston as Director of Teaching and Learning.

- AccountabilityInTheMedia.com was begun in 2009 to respond to inaccuracies in the media’s coverage of the John Freshwater and Mount Vernon Board of Education controversy. Since posting a response to The Columbus Dispatch editorial of January 7, 2009, “Teaching moment,” which was about Freshwater, I followed up with details from the state administrative hearing. Although I do have opinions about various aspects of the controversy— I support Freshwater’s right to have a Bible on his desk; I also support his right to due process—this website is not affiliated with Freshwater or any other party involved in litigation with the school.

Why does this man think he can be THE person to pick what books are in a public school library?
